Abstract

The IEC 61499 (function block) standard proposes an open architecture for distributed industrial-process measurement and control systems (IPMCS). The IEC 61499 defines the basic concepts and methodology for the design of modular reusable distributable systems, and paves the way for the new reconfigurable and flexible manufacturing. This paper presents the development of a software tool (IEC 61499 application generator) and its application to a closed loop control system, using an inverted pendulum as a testbed. The application generator enables the deployment of IEC 61499 applications to scan-based embedded controllers. The paper describes an approach to implement an event-based architecture on a scan-based industrial controller and its application to a closed loop control system
